I managed to figure this out, bootstrapped 7.8 then 7.6, sent a patch upstream (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8965), uploaded the patch to Debian, and synced it into Ubuntu. The Haskell stack is now building on ppc64el. GHCi is probably feasible on ppc64el next cycle, but it will take some porting work that I *really* don't have time for right now. Hopefully this is the last of the bootstrapping for a while!
